Chapter 123 - You Hold onto Zhizhi
Guo Fan's face stiffened. He subconsciously reached out his hand to cover Tan Xinyue's eyes. His other hand was about to break free.
However, Tan Ling's smile did not change. It was even deeper. She licked her lips and separated a tail to pull Tan Xinyue over and place her between the two of them.
To be more precise, it was Guo Fan's embrace.
Guo Fan was confused, but at this time, Tan Ling's tail suddenly let go of Xinyue. In order to prevent Tan Xinyue from falling down, he could only reach out and hug Tan Xinyue.
The child's body was unbelievably soft. This was the first time Guo Fan had come into contact with such a young child. Although it was a Mountain Sea Spirit, it was no different from an ordinary human body. It still gave people a fragile feeling that a slight squeeze would cause injuries. He frowned. His movements couldn't help but become lighter.
Tan Xinyue blinked and looked up at Guo Fan. This child's chubby cheeks were red and his skin was white. His big black eyes were clear and bright, and he looked exceptionally cute.
When she grew up, she would definitely be a little beauty. No wonder she was called the Mountain Sea Spirit. Just from the appearance of her appearance, one could feel how beautiful the place that gave birth to her was.
Guo Fan reached out his hand to touch Tan Xinyue's head. This child narrowed his eyes and rubbed his head against his palm. Immediately after, his eyes turned and his interest immediately shifted. His two hands pressed on his chest. He spat out saliva bubbles and reached out to grab his sleeve. He looked curious.
It seemed like he had discovered the hammer hidden in his sleeve.
Guo Fan's expression was subtle. He felt that his old father's heart, which had been destroyed by Yijun, was once again ignited.
In comparison, Tan Xinyue was young and cute. She was not like Yijun, who was taught badly by Li Xieren. If she was raised since young, she would definitely become the ideal daughter.
“Xinyue, be good. Let your Uncle Liu hug you.” Tan Ling said with a smile.
“Yiya?”
Xinyue looked like a two or three-year-old child from the inside out. When she heard Tan Ling's words, she turned her head and saw her mother looking at her with an encouraging gaze and nodded her head in a daze. She vaguely said, “Niu… Huhuhu…”
Niu Huhu, “...”
A person who couldn't even speak clearly and had to put in a lot of effort was just too cute.
Guo Fan felt that he could hold Tan Xinyue's back with the span of one palm. It was enough to show how small this child was. He recalled how he had seen those mothers carrying children in the past. He adjusted his posture and let Tan Xinyue lie on his chest. He turned his body and played with his sleeve.
Speaking of which, since Tan Ling had already placed the child in his arms, was she going to stop and talk about proper business?
However, Tan Ling did not have the intention of letting him go.
......
Guo Fan's gaze passed Tan Xinyue and landed on Tan Ling's face. He looked back at her.
Tan Ling's charming eyes were like silk as she said, “You carry Xinyue so that I can talk about proper business.”
Guo Fan, “???”
Damn it, how can we talk about proper business?
Guo Fan felt that he was wrong. If this continued, Tan Xinyue's education would have a huge problem because her mother was a vixen!
This was simply crooked from the bottom of her heart!
So it might be a good thing that Tan Ling gave Tan Xinyue to him to raise.
But now, things had already started to go wrong! It had to be reversed from the beginning. Otherwise, what would happen if he went astray like Yijun in the future?
“Xinyue is still here. Hey, how did you become a mother?” Guo Fan asked sternly.
Tan Ling blinked her eyes. “Isn't she just interested in your sleeve? Just block it and don't let her see it. After all, how could a child understand proper business? It was better not to know too much. Xinyue, are you having fun with uncle?”
Tan Xinyue had already grabbed the hammer from Guo Fan's sleeve. Her two small hands were holding the snow-white and soft cat. Guo Fan had no choice but to lend a hand and suppress the waking hammer. Otherwise, this dragon would most likely want to run back.
But this way, Tan Xinyue could divert her attention.
“Meow?” The two claws of the hammer were placed on Tan Xinyue's body. She was tightly hugged by the latter and buried into her soft fur.
The hammer had never seen a human child before. It stretched out its pink plum flower shaped paw and touched Tan Xinyue's face.
“Kitty… Happy…”
Tan Xinyue's eyes sparkled. Clearly, she liked Hammer very much. The two little fellows hugged each other and the cuteness of the scene increased.
However, under this cute scene, it was the serious discussion of the two adults.
Guo Fan took a deep breath and said, “I came to say that I want Xinyue to help me with something…”
Damn, this vixen really wanted to get things done faster!
“Hmm… What favor is it? Although Xinyue is a Mountain Sea Spirit, she is currently only in her childhood form. She basically doesn't have any abilities except for her natural affinity.” Tan Ling frowned as she felt that it was a little troublesome.
Guo Fan said, “So… I want to directly let her grow up a little. Uh, I mean to use the spirit ascension array. Let her directly grow up. After all, the Mountain Sea Spirit is also a type of Fey spirit monster. It can be used as a human to stimulate her evolution.”
“Hmph, growing up should be the goal…”
“How is that possible? Xinyue is quite cute now, and I see Xinyue as my daughter. What your mother does is…” Guo Fan hurriedly moved Xinyue's head back to where she wanted to turn. Xinyue looked at him doubtfully. “Xinyue, it's not good looking over there. You play hammer.”
Hammer: “Meow, meow, meow, meow?”
Guo Fan warned Hammer with his eyes.
Hammer showed his unyielding pride. “Lowly, dirty human, I will not be played by her. I played with her willingly.”
The white cat raised its head. It looked extraordinary.
Tan Ling frowned and her expression became somewhat depressed, “Oh… What do you want her to help with? Will there be any danger?”
Guo Fan shook his head and said, “No, the unique ability of the Mountain Sea Spirit, Mountain. Sea Realm, after casting, will lower the power of the people within range by a large stage. As long as Xinyue uses it from a long distance to Sun Fen and Xun Yimu, the rest of the matters will be left to me.”
Tan Ling's ears twitched and said, “You finally plan to take the initiative?”
Guo Fan nodded and said, “What you said about letting them tie each other down is also a feasible method. But the situation is too urgent right now. I think it is better to cut the knot quickly.”
In this kind of situation, balance was not a good choice. In the future, they should try it. But now, Sun Fen had almost caught Guo Fan. It was better to get rid of her as soon as possible.
Tan Ling expressed her support, but she wanted Guo Fan to ensure Xinyue's safety.
When Guo Fan walked out of the room with the hammer in hand, he deeply felt that he would not easily believe this symbol of friendship in the future.
Behind him, Tan Ling watched him walk out of the inn and lightly licked her lips.
Whatever she wanted, no matter what, she had to get…
